Just noticed that on the Global Industrry tab there is a column call bunker (fuel). What is this and how is it used in the game?

Bunker fuel is the total fuel in the tanks of all ships (not cargo).

I seem to be getting a silent error consistently. Does my posting the picture below help anything?

That explains why my current tracker reports zero on a new load it won't be able to calculate it until the supply routines occur.

Does it happen when you're loading turns or at other times? I think it's because you're viewing alerts while a new turn is being loaded. If that's the case, the error is harmless.

Yes, that's the scenario. I load a new turn, view the Alerts and then close Tracker. It's a harmless kind of thing. Roger that.

sorry, by jumbled meaning that the column headings are all listed in column a, and the info is spread out across the other columns in no order, c

The file is fine; you need to manage it properly in your spreadsheet program. When you import a CSV file, each part between the commas should be a separate column.

I had to install Tracker on a new laptop which runs Java 6 update 27.
This is what I get back when trying to start Tracker, it doesn't even get into the tool.

Any ideas?

Do you have old "trackerdb" files? Damian or Floyd can correct me here if I'm wrong, but in my experience the database files are specific to the version of Java that you're running. I've also had problems using them on 32-bit/64-bit machines.

It doesn't look like your version of Java is the problem (because it's loading the DB). My hunch is it's the .dll or old trackerdb files (from your last install/other computer?).

It looks like you have the wrong pwsdll.dll file in the tracker folder.

That gets my vote, too.

Remove the trackerdb.* files, move the proper pwsdll.dll file over and try again.

Brothers can i update to the java update without problems?
Please let me know.

WitPTracker still does not work under Java 7. Read back a few pages for several posts related to how you can still make it work using the older (Java 6) version.

[witpqs]

What Floyd said. I have both Java 7 and Java 6 running on my PC. Java 6 is used only for Tracker. Otherwise, Java 7 is used when something needs Java.

[MAARTENR]

I've got already it how with witptrackers about java 6 but can i now update the other update thats released.
With other works is witptracker working if i update the other version of java7?

Basically it works like this. For simplicity I'm explaining it from when you have 'no' Java installed.

- Install Java 6.
- Install Java 7.
- Point your Tracker .bat files to specifically find Java 6.

The key part is that when you install Java 7, it leaves all the Java 6 files on your disk. But, all the 'default pointers' so to speak, now point to Java 7. When Java wants to update, it will be Java 7 that gets updated (there are no more updates for Java 6 now anyway). When something wants 'Java', it will get Java 7. Only things that specifically look for your Java 6 folder (like the Tracker .bat files you just modified) will find Java 6.

I'm saying i have java7 and i've changed the things how to use java6. Do i get the same problem like that before when i update java7 to a better version?

Your Tracker is using Java 6. Period. Upgrading Java 7 does not affect it.

Is that what you mean?

BTW, because of the security issues, I do advise that you upgrade Java 7 ASAP when upgrades are available.

[MAARTENR]

Yes thats what i mean. Thanx.
